Calling Harleen Deol a Wonder Woman, Anand Mahindra, Chairman of Mahindra Group, finds it unbelievable and asks if it is any special effects trick.
Nope. Not possible. Couldn’t have happened. Must be some special effects trick. What? It was real? Ok, move over Gal Gadot; the real WonderWoman is here… pic.twitter.com/Cr9STZrVnW
